High Level Exercises Weeks 4-8 - Total Knee Replacement 

I had knee replacement surgery end of August last year. Did all those exercises before & after surgery. It was tough but worth it, I can walk fast, no pain & not bow legged anymore. Best thing I did.

Any videos on young fit 40 year olds who did prehab and was very fit before a partial or full knee replacement. I’m 4 weeks post op from a partial knee and progressing fast but would like to see more videos for younger fit people. These PTA’s are very good.

Thanks so much guys,you are a comedy duo 😂with just enough physicality to be enough challenge for me at 6 weeks😅 . So appreciate this website

Hi. Thank you for this super helpful video. I have been practising this past week and my walking has definitely got better. Thank you so much 🙂

The step ups and step down should be done on a stool large enough for the whole foot to be on the stool. The heel should not be hanging off on the step ups.

I loved you videos and channel. I want see after THR patient exercise.

Thanks! My Mom will definitely Benefit from tbese exercises. BTW. . . .nice legs.

I am in 12 weeks of my both knees replaced, but I am not able to walk confidently! Sometimes when I am standing I trip backwards or front. I can walk without holding anything only I do not bend my knees, walk comfortably without bending knees as I loose valance always bending my knees.

Wow! Thanks I just had my knee replacement in December 2019. I’m still working on my knee. These are great exercise since I can’t go to physical Therapy.

Thanks! These work great for my more invasive knee arthroscopy that included partial menisectomy and a larger incision for removing a massive loose body. Slower progress than usual arthroscopy but right in line with the recovery period of total knee replacement. These progressive guides are way better than the instructions given by the hospital.

I’m 3 months after total knee replacement, the outer side of leg is in constant pain, like cramps. It has to do with how I stand on my operated leg. Can you suggest exercises to correct this? I started doing the “after 8 weeks routine”, some exercises are still hard…. Thanks in advance for your input!

How can I see TKR weeks 1 -3

Thanks for these tips. I’m 6 weeks post-op for TNR, great range of motion and extension and getting bored with the home exercises, so adding a few new ones should help. When I go to PT I end up using machines that I don’t have access to otherwise and in a way that’s not helpful for the daily grind.

I had a right TKR 8 days ago and am already doing all these exercises so suck it

Quite good. Must comment though, try not to stand with your arms crossed all the time as if you are not really interested and actually doing this video was boring for you.

Thank you starting on 4th week

Great job, Alex and Mike!

Very helpful. Thanks

Thanks for guiding us to recuperate. Gracias

Just a small point.. In the #2, sit to stand exercise, Mike says if your left leg is strong you may push off like this.... and he bends stronger on the weak left side. Sorry for being picky Mike.

Thank you I'm at this stage 7 weeks and will incorporate this into my pt routine

Thanx for this vid👍🏻...1st time @PT today. They didn't have handouts or a app😒...And I'm already forgetting my homework😪

Thank you so much for this week by week recovery vids!

The world's greatest physical therapists!

Wow I've been in PT for 3.5 month (one knee then the other replaced) and this has been more informative than they are for these exercises. Thank you!

Wonderful moves. Just my knee replaced 2 weeks ago and ways looking to challenge myself. This will do it.

and what about the people specially ladies who has both the knee replaced in a interval of 6 days ?

Thank you. I ruptured my patellar tendons in both knees. These exercises are very helpful

I have been doing this phase for 3 weeks. I am still having pain going down stairs. Any suggestions on how to reduce pain going down stairs?

These therapists are excellent I'm on week4 Exactly what I do at PT 3 X a week!

Baby Bob and Brad, the wonder years🤣🤣

As a teenager, is it bad to frequently crack you knuckles?

Hello brother thank you for the informative video. Kindly show how to manage with bilateral total knee replacement

Excellent advice at all times

This is awesome to see you are using your PTAs

Total left knee replacement 18 days post. Thanks guys for what you do as therapists. I negotiated going back to work at week 4. 60 yo male and lively hood driven. To those effected: Learn which pain is what to work through rather than to medicate. There is a difference Be honest in your recovery. Only you know, Right? Set a goal, exceed a goal. This is important. If you are honest with your ability, .. you get my point. Run everything past your therapist. I mean every pain ache and restless leg issue . I'm in pain telling you this but I know I will overcome. That I will be back to work in 4 wees

How can I see previous week 1-3 physio

Using the step stool is a REALLY BAD idea. Shocked that these guys are suggesting using the stool which could slide & also using poles....? Wow, SUPER bad idea, hope they don't get sued!
